King Charles took to his feet to dance alongside the Queen at the Coronation concert as they got carried away with their family to the music of Lionel Richie, Katy Perry and a spectacular Take That finale.
Prince George and Princess Charlotte led the royals in a singalong during the final performance from the British boy band at Windsor Castle.
Charles III and his wife Camilla also laughed uproariously at Miss Piggy and Kermit the Frog, who even appeared in the royal box with them before the stage and Windsor Castle were turned a patriotic red, white and blue.

Grooving: The royals were dancing on their feet in the first Coronation concert in history
The couple were roared throughout by the 20,000-strong crowd, who did three cheers for the King and Queen when they arrived as the sun set for the show beamed into homes in 100 countries around the world.
And as night fell, the royals donned their glowstick wristbands, got to their feet and started dancing to Lionel, as he sang All Night Long. Katy Perry belted out hits including Roar before Take That closed the spectacular show that included Shakespeare, ballet and a drone show reflecting the monarch’s love of the environment, culminating in a blue whale soaring over the castle.
At the finale, choristers of St George’s Chapel, Windsor Castle, sang the opening to Take That’s song Never Forget, which gave the show an uplifting finale.
Prince George and Princess Charlotte clapped along with the song before the King also joined in – and there was a dancing Queen, as Camilla moved to the music. The royal couple then held up their Union flags as the concert came to a close, with William tickling George’s nose with his.
